Jelgava and Valmiera / BSS have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Virsliga.
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Virsliga. This match was also played here at Zemgales Olimpiskā centra. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Valmiera / BSS have had more rest.

Jelgava's last game was hosting Ventspils (placed 3rd) and winning 1-0. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Rigas FS.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Jelgava have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won one, drawn two and lost two.
Jelgava have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. 3 goals have been conceded.
